Villeroy & Boch: Cutlery and porcelain fit for a princess

While her boring old parents eat off plain old IKEA plates using IKEA cutlery, our fairy princess has her food served on Villeroy & Boch porcelain. My mommy gave her a Funny Zoo porcelain set and the Kiddy Bears cutlery set a while back and then gave me a hard time about not letting Ladybug use them. :D In my defense, I wanted her to be a little older so she’d appreciate them more and… well, grip them a little more firmly. Jokes aside, she’s very happy with her adorable little sets and she has very specific preferences for each meal. If she wants to eat honey straight out of the pot, she asks for the “little bear spoon”, some days nothing goes but her “lion mug” etc. Did you guys have a special plate or bowl in your childhood? I remember two – I had one at home with geese and one at grandma’s place that had a baby deer and a traffic light, both of which I loved to death. Asking a kid to eat until the picture on the bottom of the dish shows is a pretty clever parenting move. Worked on me every single time!
